How about the same as the Idealism trope? Saying its for kids? it would acknowledge that being closed minded to any hope or idealism is just as childish as being too idealistic.

Got to say, the trope title is mighty ironic. "Loser" means "someone incapable of success", which is a very cynical concept.

Exactly. Calling a cynic a loser only means that you agree with him that he's a loser.
All tropes ultimately come from Real Life. So Real Life should be troped as well.
Would Superman laying the verbal smackdown on some Anti Heroes by saying "These 'no-nonsense" solutions of yours just don't hold water in a complex world of jet-powered apes and time travel" count as an example?
